State Police Robert Anderson, 40, Cloverdale, was arrested near his home on Robert Weist Avenue after he allegedly fled from police on the westbound lanes of Interstate 70. The Cloverdale man was charged with resisting law enforcement, operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, leaving the scene of an accident and speeding. According to reports, Anderson was traveling at speeds exceeding 100 mph on 1-70 behind State Police investigator Paul Skinner of Indianapolis headquarters. Skinner apparently tried to stop Anderson by pulling alongside the vehicle but was unable to divert the subject. Skinner, together with Trooper Gary Salsman, pursued Anderson back to Cloverdale where he was arrested at approximately 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, police said. Greencastle Fire Dept. Firemen were called to the two-story frame home, 636 E. Seminary St., owned by First Citizens Bank at 5:55 p.m. Wednesday. The home was occupied at the time of the fire by Char Parker. A short in the wiring of a countertop range was the cause of the fire which was out upon arrival of the unit, firemen said. Approximately SSO damage was sustained, according to the report. Sheriff’s Dept. Interstate 70 at the 35 mile marker was the scene of a onevehicle accident Thursday morning. Involved in the 1:15 a.m. accident was a 1972 Ford sedan, driven by Anthony W. Glassglow, 810 N. 14th St., Terre Haute. Glassglow told deputy Jim Baugh that a deer crossed his path of travel from the south side and he could not avoid the accident.

succeed Mrs. Adams as high school cafeteria manager The board also voted to accept with gratitude the retirement resignation of Mrs. Marcella Minnick, a 15-year employee in the high school cafeteria. -AUTHORIZED AN eight-period day for 1984-85 at the middle school, as proposed by Principal Roy Boling The change, which increases the number of periods from seven to eight, provides for 45-minute periods and the daily minimum of 360 minutes of instructional time as required by the state. Peck emphasized that the eight-period day approved by the board is the student day for next year. The length of the teachers’ day will be discussed with the Greencastle Classroom Teachers Association. Daily starting and dismissal times at the middle school for next year remain to be determined -Heard Mrs. Janett Boling, curriculum director, report that results of testing in grades three, five, eight and 10 show that the average student in the Greencastle schools ranks above the national average in reading, composition, spelling, math, social studies and science. Copies of the test results are sent to parents, Mrs. Boling said, and are used by the cor-
chairman of the chemistry department at DePauw University. His topic will be “Alternatives for Improving Education.” McFarland, a member of the DPU Speakers’ Bureau, received his A.B. from DePauw University and his Ph.D. from Vanderbilt. He has been on the DePauw staff since 1961. According to North Putnam teacher Ron Price, the honors banquet was initiated by high school Principal Bill Schad. Of-

poration to plan programs of instruction and monitor individual and group progress. -Approved the hiring of Sharon Pitcock and Ray Dickerson to teach a summer Primetime program for a maximum of 18 fifth-graders. As explained by Mrs Boling, the state-funded 10-day program June 1829 will target students who need additional academic instruction in language arts, math and science. -APPROVED A SUMMER recreation program as presented by Doug Miller, athletic director at the high school -Heard Principal James Church report that the high school already is “in good shape" to meet instructional time changes mandated by the state’s Commission on General Education. The board amended the student handbook to require that seniors spend the entire day at school, as now required by the state. Previously, seniors could leave during the last period if they had a study hall. The handbook also was amended to show that early graduation is permitted only after seven semesters, instead of the present six, another change required by the state.
ficials hope to make the program an annual event. NORTH PUTNAM seniors to be honored include Diana Aker, Kelly Beck, Tim Blocher, Tina Brewster, Kathy Bryan, Greg Cram, Jackie Eaton, Francy English, Sue Fordice, Andy Frye, Lue Gray and Matt Griswold. Also, Myrona Hacker, Debbie Leatherman, Kurt Liphardt, Laura Spires, Danny Whitmer. Bill Zeffel, Jerry Smith, Lisa Hartman and Sam Rose.
Middle School-
on Northeast School, work on clocks and public address systems at all elementaries, energy conservation and consideration of additional classroom space that may be required as the result of the state-sponsored Primetime program that seeks smaller classes in the lower grades. “The findings and recommendations of the 1980 study are still basically sound,” Peck said. “Since that time, however, two significant changes in our circumstances have occurred. “First, Miller School was closed in May of 1981 at an annual savings of approximately $250,000. Second, our enrollment has declined from 1,971 to our current enrollment of 1,809. Our enrollment appears to have stabilized and we are no longer declining.” ACKNOWLEDGING THAT the corporation continues to experience difficulties in its general fund, Peck said that fund was out of balance by about $140,000 at the end of 1983. The problem, he told the board, is that expenditures continue to exceed the level of general fund income permitted by the state. The general fund is used to pay daily operating expenses of the schools, including salaries. “While we do have serious problems in the General Fund, this should not prevent the school corporation from entering into a building and remodeling program,” Peck told board members. “The financing of building and remodeling programs is financed from sources separate from the general fund. Funds raised for a building and remodeling project could not be used to pay general fund expenses.” Board members Ed Meyer, Robert Delp, Bayard Allen and Dale Pierce agreed that the corporation should begin discussing the feasibility of building a new middle school, as well as remodeling needs at the high school and the elementaries. “I HOPE THAT IN JUNE we can get a building program moving, at least in the exploratory stage,” said Meyer, who presided in the absence of board president Patricia Hess. Peck said building and remodeling needs will be added to the June 13 agenda for further discussion.
